Burglary suspect arrested in North Vancouver

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 03 May, 2023 01:01 PM
  • Burglary suspect arrested in North Vancouver

R-C-M-P say a man in his 30s has been arrested and charged with break-and-enter after a burglary in North Vancouver. 

Police say a restaurant owner called to report a break-in after surveillance video captured two suspects with a theft in progress.

They say officers spotted a man a short distance away who matched the description of one of the suspects and seized electronic devices worth six-thousand dollars, which were then returned to the business.

The Mounties say the man from Vancouver has a "lengthy history" with police and he's scheduled to attend court in July.
